Since it started snowing all my girlfriend has done is look through the window.... If it gets any worse I'll have to let her in !

Which programme are these items from?

The correct url should be http://www.newsground.com

Thanks for your help, unfortunatly we dont use ISA...

Is it possible to create a landing page that has a login box so that we can direct staff to a page to log in externally?

I managed to solve it in the end by creating a bat script and setting it as a scheduled task. Below is what I cobbled together, might come in handy for someone else. @echo off cd C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn osql -E -S 10.0.3.60 -Q "BACKUP DATABASE ServiceDesk TO DISK = 'C:\ServiceDesk Backup\ServiceDesk.bak'" cd "c:\serviceDesk Backup" for /f "tokens=1-4 delims=/ " %%b in ('date /t') do (set day=%%b& set month=%%c& set year=%%d) set jdate=%day%-%month%-%year% ren ServiceDesk.bak %jdate%.bak COPY /Y "C:\ServiceDesk Backup\%jdate%.bak" "\\storage\ServiceDesk Backup$\"

Hi, We would like to backup our ServiceDesk in case the unfortunate happens. I have setup a scheduled task which uses the following: osql -S server.mydomain.com -U sqlbackup -Q "BACKUP DATABASE ServiceDesk TO DISK = 'N:\ServiceDesk Backup\ServiceDesk.bak'" Is there a way I can use the current date to rename the file? e.g ServiceDesk_101110.bak Thanks, Michael

What is the best way of publishing this on the web? Currently we have set it up as the following: - External DNS Record for home.mydomain.com which goes to our smoothwall external IP and then port forwards to the server. Users are prompted to enter thier login details which are not encrypted. How does everyone else do it. We do not have a ISA server to publish the site. Thanks, Michael

We went to Mc'D's the other day to get some grub. The staff were shocked to find out that Fanta was not suitable for vegiterians as most of them drank it.

All important software runs as the SYSTEM user, so cannot be killed by a normal user. Users can only kill applications that they have started.

Right I finally have this working... I have deployed it to a room and logged on as a student and was able to kill the task with task manager. Defeating the purpose! We have task manager enabled so that they can kill a crashed application if needed. Is there any way I can make it run as system so that the user can not kill the process?

Would it be possible for you to attach your adm file here? Cheers, Michael

It appears that we have another problem at the mo. It seems that if the printer is not on, for example if Room412 is not on the Room412 Colour does not get mapped either. Case "rm412" WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\sharepoint\Room412" WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\sharepoint\Room412Colour" WshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\sharepoint\Room412" Is there any was I can force it to carry on if a printer is swithed off? This did not seem to be a problem until recently Thanks Michael

I have tried the thunderbird option as suggested above. I have downloaded the portable version and have installed it on a shared drive. It works ok but as soon as another user trys to open it, it says that another user is already using it. Does anyone know how I can get round this? Michael

Fantastic - Do you have the au3 file so I can have a play around to see how you did it? As I don't seem to be able to use enter to go to the next line in the message box.

Its needed for 1 hour for 1 day... I don't really want to spend loads of time on this if possible.

We've removed outlook 2007 and the basic from the build. So unfortunatly this wont be an option for us.

Once again, Im having to come back to this as students are driving staff mad with flash games. I have it working on a test machine and it works great but how can I package it up for a vanilla domain. I tried using WinInstall LE but it didnt work properly. Regards, Michael

Hi, We have just been told that students will need to be able to create an example email for an assessment they will be doing but they can not have internet access. They need to be able to enter a to:, cc:, subject and the message text. They then need to printscreen the email but not send it. I've had a look at some portable email clients but I dont think it will work too well. Does anyone know of any flash swf that can replicate an email client? or can suggest anything different? Thanks, Michael

Seems as though the Edugeek Favicon is missing since being back online.

Cheers Nick... I wont be able to do that due to the lack of IIS7. Also is it possible for us to use just hap.domain.com without the /extranet ? I would like to use it this way as I know staff will forget to add it and then complain it doesn't work. Thanks, Michael

Thanks Nick... I'll think of something else. Think I might move it to another server, put the server in a DMZ and use a spare public IP that we have. Thanks, Michael

Hi Nick, I finally have it working... Staff are going to love this! Much better and fancy way of accessing their docs from home. 1 Question - Is it possible to run it on a different port in IIS? I have tried changing it to 81 and can login fine, but accessing Documents does not work. (Edit: Using the Basic Version Works.) What would I need to change in the Web.config to make the Silverlight version work? Regards, Michael

I have tried the config tool, but upon clicking finish I get the following message.

Could anybody help me with a few questions.... Does anyone have any installation instructions for a vanilla install? What type of server should this be installed on, DC, storage, application.... Thanks, Michael
